“Make no mistake, Jasmine Robinson has rocketed to ultra-elite status in 2024. A head-turning talent in the 300-meter hurdles—ranking second all-time nationally in the event in between a pair of eventual Olympic gold medalists—she competed in the 400-meter hurdles at the USATF U20 Championships against collegians, smashing the state record by 1.50 seconds and earn a spot in the World U20 meet in Peru this summer.”
